"Excellent American dishes cooked to perfection."

4worldlovers: Whereas "New American Cuisine" is a term for upscale, contemporary cooking that combines flavors from America's melting pot with traditional techniques, "New American West Cuisine" draws its roots from the concept of New American, but narrows its focus primarily to the ingredients, cultural influences and cooking techniques inherent to the Rocky Mountain West.

We are pleased to provide free valet parking for our guests. Please enter the Renaissance Denver Downtown hotel drive on Champa, just south of 17th Street.

Let range host your next special event. We can accommodate private parties of 10 or more.

4worldlovers: As a vision from diverse backgrounds, the riff behind the name pays homage to the late and great Jimmy Smith, a legendary 1960’s jazz musician. His live song and album, recorded in 1972 entitled Root Down (And Get It) speaks to the ability of returning to the root or “one” chord of the song. Melodic, raw, vital, earthy.

The Beastie Boys, taking their own spin on the tune made it funky, gritty and fresh in the album Ill Communication. Mirroring the song’s history, Root Down’s philosophy echoes these cords. We are imperfect but celebrate the flaws.

Root Down’s ability to combine and complement a team is rooted in a foundational belief that each individual brings flavor, personality and strength to the stage. These values and tradition embody our ethos. We individually harmonize, prioritize unique personalities, yet mesh cohesively. We thrive as a team. This is Root Down.


To consistently and passionately serve every guest remarkable, organic, seasonal, farm-to-table globally inspired cuisine; highlighting the colors, textures and essence of the earth in a dynamic, inclusive and relaxed atmosphere. This is Root Down.


Passion for purity, quality – food that is approachable to the guest and cravable. Bright flavors; dynamic yet uncomplicated – our food is globally influenced cuisine that features an abundance of vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options using locally-farmed, sustainable and organic ingredients as much as possible.


Originally designed to serve the eclectic neighborhoods of LoHi & Downtown Denver, Root Down expanded its roots to include the vibrant and rapidly changing landscape of Denver International Airport. Essential elements of Root Down’s 4,000 square-foot space incorporates sustainable practices along with design aspects reminiscent of the energy, aesthetic and pulse of the 1960’s, when air travel was a luxury. Equipped with WiFi and eco-friendly fare, Root Down provides modern day conveniences in a retro-fitted environment.


Root Down’s colorful selection of carefully crafted Colorado microbrews to diverse variety of wines by the glass all focus on biodynamic and organic growers. In addition, our beer program is designed to reduce our environmental impact. Draft beer is specifically suited for only the local breweries, with 24 Colorado drafts total on tap!


We humbly provide our unique version of vegetable focused modern American comfort food, sustainable line-caught seafood and certified humane pasture-raised meats - setting a new standard of culinary excellence, food sourcing ethics and wellness-based cuisine.


We deal with local as much as possible – from farmers to growers to purveyors – albeit in an international airport, we constantly source and continually research the best in Colorado from responsibly raised animals to organic vegetables. Whenever possible, we utilize food that is natural, no artificial ingredients, no chemicals. We deal with companies that have sound integrity and seamless flavorful product.


Travelers sit at reclaimed butcher-block tables and reupholstered, vintage chairs. Several aspects of the intricate design are locally sourced, including all cabinetry and steel work. A living wall of moss interspersed with tin can lids and airplane gauges adorns an entire dining room wall. Re-purposed suitcases, dozens of airplane flaps are all relics from America’s jet-setting past.

4worldlovers:

ViewHouse was first conceptualized in 2010. The experience was inspired by Coloradans’ fondness of sports and crafted around living a healthy lifestyle revolved around food, activities, and all things local.


ViewHouse Ballpark opened its doors in March of 2013 in Denver’s Ballpark neighborhood across from Coors Field—quickly becoming one of America’s most popular bars. The second and largest ViewHouse opened in Centennial in August 2014, followed by a third location launching in the heart of Littleton in June of 2017 on Main Street. And last, but certainly not least, we opened our fourth and most cutting-edge location in Colorado Springs in February 2020 with scenic Pikes Peak mountain views for days.


Each ViewHouse location promises a vibrant atmosphere, animated staff, indoor & outdoor flatscreens, and a variety of bar activities for sports fans, backyard-game-junkies, and casual diners alike. We’ll cheers to that!
